Colt

You would think a 1.5-year-old beagle mix would spend his days howling dramatically, following his nose into trouble, and causing tiny little acts of chaos.Colt said absolutely not.Instead, this 38-pound weirdo has dedicated his life to carrying around stuffed animals, forcing people to cuddle him, and looking offensively cute at all times.Seriously, Colt is almost suspiciously adorable. The floppy ears. The expressive eyes. The little face. It feels less like looking at a real dog and more like someone designed him in a lab specifically to make people say, "Wait… HIM."He loves soft toys so much that he treats them like prized possessions, proudly carrying them around wherever he goes. And while he absolutely has playful young dog energy, Colt's favorite thing is still being close to his people. If there is an opportunity to lean against you, curl up beside you, or climb directly into your personal space for affection, he is taking it.Colt is also dog-friendly and has done well with other dogs, and we think he would likely do well with children, too. He has the kind of goofy, lovable personality that makes him easy to picture becoming part of just about any family.Colt has a huge personality packed into a very cute little body, and honestly, once you meet him, it is hard not to become slightly obsessed with him.We certainly are.Colt's adoption fee is $175, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption.Please note: All of our animals are spayed/neutered and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Each pet also receives a behavioral assessment to help us better understand the type of home they may thrive in. However, it's important to remember that the results may not fully reflect an animal's true personality, as shelter and foster environments can be stressful.
